Today is my birthday, and I don’t take a single one for granted. It’s not that I’m proud I was born, it’s that I’m so grateful to be here celebrating another year of life.

After facing cancer and fighting to overcome it, life’s milestones mean something different to me. I celebrate every victory and every special moment because there was a time when I didn’t know if I’d be here to experience them.

For my birthday, I got to take my granddaughter on her first train ride to the Grand Canyon, where she experienced one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World! And I got to experience her joy. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday gift.

These days, joy most often finds me in the most ordinary and understated ways, a new bloom opening in the garden, a cute bird visiting , a little lizard basking in the sun, or the wonder in my granddaughter’s eyes.

Life is short. Drink in all the joy, big and small. 💚

Stone bunny recipe 🪨🐇
Here is the exact formula I used:

TEXTURE MIX
• 2 tbsp DAP Weatherproof Patch
• 1 tbsp Outdoor Mod Podge
• ½ tsp fine sand

AGE WASH
• 1 tsp brown acrylic paint
• 2 tbsp water
• tiny drop of black

PROCESS
1. Bonding primer
2. Apply texture mix (dab, don’t smooth)
3. Outdoor patio paint base coat warm stone color.
Examples:
* Cream
* Beige
* Light taupe
4. Wash bunny and let settle in cracks + wipe back
5. Ivory dry brush highlights
That’s what turns $2 thrift
store bunnies into aged
stone garden statues 🪨🐇

Built our sanctuary from old discarded windows with no plans but lots of dreams.✨

It’s become our favorite place in the garden. 🌿

We use old doors all over our garden… so naturally we had to stop and debate this one at Restore 😂
His guess vs. mine was WAY off. Wait for the price reveal 👀
